I set this one

[wvsurveyor1984]

I had to rush to get this disk in for our state wide HARN project. I did not know what to stamp on the disk so I just put my name and license number. Kind of cool. Maybe the mark will last longer than me.

True, the disk may last longer than you. But hopefully you will be around for a long time, also.

 

Perhaps we can come up with a prediction about this. Here is a list of common disk descriptions. Do any of these apply to you?

 

*Lying on the ground

 

*Leaning

 

*Surface badly scratched from encounters with things passing by

 

*Parts missing

 

And, perhaps the most likely condition in today's Economy:

 

*Poor

PFF,

 

Thanks for sending Okie'sKid and I out the door with a chuckle yesterday for a fun day in the field - partly his official business, partly Wilder-Carrroll research in the CMR for me. For us:

 

*Please RESET SOON.

There is a PS in Michigan who put his name on a HARN mark that he set in his front yard, just his last name. PS society was involved in helping pick locations in the respective areas.

Who do you contact about having a disk made up?

 

I would love to get one with the Western Mass Geocachers initials on it and start placing them at our yearly event at the different locations we go to in the state.
